(pre 8.1) versions of Postgresql, and potentially other PG engines
such as Redshift (assuming Redshift reports the version as < 8.1).
The query for "indexes" as well as "primary keys" relies upon inspecting
a so-called "int2vector" datatype, which refuses to coerce to an array
prior to 8.1 causing failures regarding the "ANY()" operator used
in the query. Extensive googling has located the very hacky, but
recommended-by-PG-core-developer query to use when PG version < 8.1
is in use, so index and primary key constraint reflection now work
on these versions.
actual mock objects from the mock library. I'd like to use mock
for new tests so we might as well use it in obvious places.
- use unittest.mock in py3.3
- changelog
- add a note to README.unittests
- add tests_require in setup.py
- have tests import from sqlalchemy.testing.mock
- apply usage of mock to one of the event tests. we can be using
this approach all over the place.
